Re: [WISPA] Service Limits

Hello Mike, The bottom line - the end game - after all is said and done, the property owner will have his way and he should. After all it is his private property and if he doesn't want to offer XYZ amenity then he shouldn't be forced to. It should be his decision and only his decision and the mar
